Bubble Bickies

These are another childhood nostalgia biscuit.There are so many versions of biscuits made with rice bubbles – principally because they are easy for children to make I suspect – but these are my favourites. They are sweet, sticky and a bit indulgent.Because of their festive colouring, these are also fab for Christmas treats and for those occasions when lots of little hands are seeking out lots of sticky sweets!

3 cups of rice bubbles

5 tablespoons butter

1 cup shredded coconut

1 ¼cups self raising flour

¼ cup glacé cherries, chopped

50 grams white chocolate

⅓ cup sugar

Pinch of cinnamon

¼ cup golden syrup

Pre-heat the oven to 180°C

In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, rice bubbles, coconut, cherries and cinnamon.

In a small saucepan, gently melt the white chocolate with the sugar, butter and golden syrup.

Pour the melted butter mix into the dry ingredients and combine will into a stiff dough.

On a baking tray lined with baking paper, drop dessertspoonfuls of the mixture, allowing some room for spreading.
